I don't like that style - but I didn't think my e-mail was worth sending to the list anyway :-D Anyhow... thought I'd say hello. I used to be on the Oxford.pm list and it's good to have something up and running to replace that. I'm not the most active or advanced perl programmer but I do rely heavily on it for web based applications and system's administration scripting. Once upon a time I was the programmer of the web based game, Planetarion which is the biggest perl based project I've worked upon.

I'm looking forward to supporting thamesvalley.pm - I almost went to a London.pm meeting in Milton Keynes last year but things didn't quite come together - so this is very welcome. I enjoyed December's London Perl Workshop and the event at the BBC (thank you Dave). Very helpful in judging how much I know and how much I still need to learn. I've been using Perl since 1995 when I persuaded someone to go for a new web site instead of a Fido based bulletin board. Since then I worked in Bioinformatics and since 2002 on a mod-perl based genealogy web site that now seems to be coming to the end of its life (moving to a websphere-based system.)

HTML will lead to lead to execution. I use pine and lynx for visiting embedded URL's, so lets try and keep things uni-dimensional for the time being. Dave: Thank you for getting the list up. All: Welcome! The idea for ThamesValley.pm popped up after attending the London Perl Teach-in. I felt a desire to be more a part of our community of like minded/issued beings. I felt inspired by the possibility to share experiences, knowledge and ideas, etc. Since I live and work in the northerly regions of Berkshire, going into London isn't really all that convenient, so I figured that it might be of benefit to join a local group. Since there didn't seem to be a local perl monger group, I had this vague thought that it might be cool to give back and start a local group. Within an hour of having the idea, I'd some how managed to secure the contribution of a venue and a whole bunch of Perl people interested in joining. Then came the wait for the mailing list and here we are! So, I figure that we should try to agree on a date for our first meeting. I'd like the focus of our meetings to be on the technical exchange. From personal experience, I recognize that if you're traveling some distance, you want to maximise your gain. Anyway, it is on this basis that I'd like to invite all of you to contribute. We can aim to meet for about two hours, once a month and fit in as much as many speakers as possible. Ideally, I'd like to see us being able to arrange about two long talks and a couple of lightening talks per meeting. We can keep the topics as open as possible, as long as there's underlying shared value. I'd also like to see a variety of content at all levels. This is a community effort and I'm counting on all of us working together to make ThamesValley.pm a united community and a beneficial resource for all Perlies in the area. * I'd like to propose that Wednesday 4th July for our first meeting. Please feel free to object and help us work towards agreement which suits most people. * The venue would be: http://servicedoffices.mwbex.com/serviced-office/reading.html * We'll have projection and internet access for whoever is presenting - I've promised the centre manager that we won't be using this to collectively crack into the Bank of England. * I'd like to thank MWB and Will, our centre manager, for offering us these facilities - in case he ever searches the archives. I've promised to give them 'mention' on our eventual website. * Adam - I'd like to renew my invitation for you to deliver your introductory talk at our first meeting. I hope you can make it? * Barbie from birmingham.pm has offered to include us in their world tour. * Tom from Milton Keynes.pm has also offered to try and steer people in our direction. Many of you have spread the word to local linux user groups - and there's been some word of mouth around here. It looks like we might all be able to make a success of this. Thanks to all of you for making this a reality!

The powers that be have decided that another organization with an existing Websphere-based site can put more marketing muscle behind the genealogical data and that (most of) the data will move to the other site and the existing site will close. They will face a number of interesting challenges along the way - including dealing with nearly 300 different ways of organizing names, dates, place names into files. I'm somewhat interested in redeveloping the software to run on my own server and take in the data that the other site will not want. I was looking at Catalyst or Ruby on Rails as the basis for the new site - there is also an argument for basing it on PHP - ugh. > On a Javaish note, would anyone be intersted in learning about EPIC, the > Perl plugin for Eclipse?

Given the relative proximity of the 2 groups it might be good to avoid having meetings on the same day of the week. Then again, there might not be that much overlap in membership so maybe it doesn't matter. Tuesdays and Wednesdays are my preferred days, but for a different reason. I spend time in the office every 2 to 3 weeks, and tend to be around in the middle of the week.

Personally a Saturday is much better for me, providing I can get back in time for the night life. Not that there is anything wrong with the night life where the meeting is held but the taxi fare back at 2/3/?am is going to cost me less from somewhere local!

That would be cool, but I'm not sure that regular Saturday meetings would be all that convenient. I that our own workshop is probably in the distant future. The other issue is that, I'm not sure if our current venue/sponsor is flexible around weekends. :( Pretty sure that my girlfriend isn't. :) > So I'm all for a Saturday, any other day of the week would mean rushing > around much more after work. It'll probably be just the one meeting a month and I see no reason for us to stick to a prescribed format - we can discuss dates on list, etc. Rushing around after work can suck - but atleast you're not rushing off to London. :) Raf From tvpm at dreamthought.com Fri Jun 22 02:31:35 2007 From: tvpm at dreamthought.com (Raf) Date: Fri, 22 Jun 2007 10:31:35 +0100 (BST) Subject: [Thamesvalley-pm] [Vote] First Meeting In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: <20070622102713.H87379@joshua.dreamthought.com> On Thu, 21 Jun 2007, Susan Spence (sspence) wrote: > London.pm has a longstanding tradition of holding social meetings on > Thursdays.

It's looking like Wednesdays/Thursdays are the most popular options at present, however as I said before, I don't see why we have to stick to some constant formula as to when we meet. If there's a london.pm meet on a given thrusday, we can always try to plan in advance and go for the following week. R.

In order to avoid a clash with London.pm, the readingusergroup and Admas trip to the highlands, I figured that I'd complicate matters. I'm thinking that it might be an idea to push the date forward by a week. I can't make 11th July, so I'm wondering how Tuesday 10th July or Thursday 12th July sound for a first meet?

Chad, if it's alright with you, I'd be keen for you to deliver your talk on mod_perl/www.FamilyHistoryOnline.net? Adam, if either of these dates are more convenient than independence day, then it might be nice to open with your introduction to perl?

Ok, then I'll move my vote to 10th July. I'll close the voting at 12pm tomorrow - to cater for those who don't read their mail until tonight - and then we'l go from there.

A number of people have been posting using from addresses which differ slightly from the email address used to subscribe to the list. This by default flags your mails as being from non-members and as a result, I have to manually moderate these - ie. ensure that you're not trying to claim heredity from some ex-developing world despot and convince me that I'm special enough to claim some inheritance on your behalf. I tend to use both joshua.dreamthought.com and dreamthought.com when posting to various lists and I know that this can be a pain at times, so I'd be grateful if you just re-subscribe with your default from header - whatever that may be. This should save me some effort and also ensure that your postings are posted, very soon, post-posting.

I'm hoping that we can aim for a two hour window from 18:30 to 20:30. We should have a wired connection for who ever is presenting. Rough Agenda: 1) Welcome <=5 mins 2) MWB Welcome ( A word from our sponsor ) <=3 mins 3) Adam's Intro to Perl 4) Quick over view of using Flickr::API to manage attribution to composite images - Jeet and Myself 5) Chad on his mod-perl site: www.FamilyHistoryOnline.net 6) Lightening talk on using the EPIC IDE for Perl. 7) Anyone else want to deliver something? 8) Introductions at pub next door. We can save try to push any outstanding talks forward to the following week, if we run out of time. The building is serviced by #4 and #6 busses from Reading station. It's also walkable from 51/52 busses. We're also right next to Junction 11 (i think?) on the M4. Wil - our sponsor - said that he'd provide us with a url which has more complete instructions on getting here. This might do for the time being: > Venue: > http://www.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&client=firefox-a&channel=s&q=mwb&near=Reading&radius=0.0&cd=1&cid=51454953,-969177,13724929318771817041&li=lmd > Time: 18:30 - 20:30 Looking forward to seeing you all.
